Applying foundation can seem tricky at first, but with the right technique, you can achieve a flawless, natural look. Here’s a quick step-by-step guide for beginners:

1. Prep Your Skin
Start with a clean, moisturized face. Apply a primer to create a smooth base and help your foundation last longer.
2. Choose the Right Foundation
Pick a foundation that matches your skin tone and type (matte for oily skin, hydrating for dry skin). Test shades on your jawline for the best match.
3. Use the Right Tools
Brush: Provides full coverage.
Sponge: Blends seamlessly for a natural finish.
Fingers: Best for light, quick application.
4. Apply & Blend
Dot foundation on your forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin. Blend outward using your tool of choice with tapping or buffing motions for an even finish.
5. Set It
Use a light dusting of setting powder for a matte finish or a setting spray for a dewy look.
Now you’re ready to rock a flawless base! Keep practicing, and soon, it’ll be second nature. 💄✨
